You are doing great. I haven't lost much since surgery. I heard about the 3 weeks stall but I didn't know there would be one at 1 1/2-2 weeks stall!!!! I'm frustrated. Keep up the good work.

Yah, my doc said no elliptical for 4-6 weeks. Way to go, I'm glad you are feeling better. I can't believe you are getting all your protein and fluids in. That's crazy!!

I understand completely. I thought it was just me as well. I have no problems drinking a 4oz protein shake or of the other liquids we are allowed. I am now getting hungry between 'meals' and as you said, have begun thinking about foods that aren't in our plan. I'm hoping this is going to change as I move into the pureed foods in a couple days.

Regards,
Chris

Glad I am not alone feeling this way. I am hungry. Would like to just eat....But...I am following what I am suppose to do and measuring everything. I have started thinking that my tummy is not gonna get the "full" trigger... I hope it learns to react soon. This 1/4 cup of stuff just doesn't seem to be enough. Guess its time for my protein shake.

Topic: RE: Did I Have Surgery? Tell That to My Digestion System

I was STARVING right after mine. Everyone talked about not being hungry, hating food, yadda yadda yadda. I really did start to wonder if they did actually do an RNY on me or did they just pump me full of an exorbinate amount of air just to make me feel like I had one. Seriously, I started to wonder if I was in some blind test of rny vs placebo effect. Well I did have it, and that hungry feeling went away once I was able to start pureed foods at 2 weeks out. But I am still waiting for my mind to catch up with my RNY...^_^*

OOPS!! I am sorry I just realized that this is the April 2010 board, sorry!
